Crappy teachers sabotage the futures of the children they're charged with teaching. Unfortunately, most teachers are crappy. Not only that but the system itself, particularly the way intelligence is measured, is crappy.

Anyone interested in education should watch this. I promise you'll find it interesting and fun. Ken Robinson is very entertaining.

To be a teacher is a job, but it's supposed to be a profession. An teacher don't supposed to be someones whom deforming you into something what the society and world awaits from them, but someone whom make the promise what you can be Fulfilled. They are supposed to be masters.

About learning / mastering anything? There is only true path to you.
- Yours.
And there is only true path to the other.
- His.

But do not think for a second the other cannot show you anything, there is no lessons must be learned from the others.

Thanks for posting the link. It was very entertaining as well as enlightening.

It also made me think of my 2 favorite teachers in school. They taught different subject matter but both provoked questions from a point of curiosity. I recall looking forward to both of those classes (English and Capstone Automotive) every single day.
